Apple TV+ has revealed a first look at their upcoming dark comedy seriesBad Sisters, created by Emmy Award-nominee and BAFTA Award-winningSharon Horgan. The first look image features a look at the series' main cast, includingAnne-Marie Duff,Eva Birthistle,Sarah Greene, andEve Hewson, who join Horgan as the titular bad sisters.
While little is known about the show, the first look image puts the five sisters together at a dining table that resembles Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper” painting. In the middle, there’s Duff, with Hewson and Horgan to her right, and Birthistle and Green to her left. All over the table, there are half-empty glasses of wine all over the table, and for some reason, Greene also displays an eyepatch. There’s a lot to unpack here, but we’ll only understand the scene a little better when Apple releases an extended synopsis, more images, or maybe a trailer.
For the moment, Apple revealed thatBad Sistersfollow five siblings who are bound by the tragic loss of their parents. Since the official synopsis calls their parents' death “premature”, we can assume the event happens during the sisters’ childhood. Since then, the five women have supported each other no matter what, which apparently will lead to some uncomfortable situations. Besides announcingBad Sistersas a dark comedy series, Apple also underlines the show is a thriller, which might indicate the sisters will get involved with some sort of crime.
